Yute Dem Share

[Intro]
Gideon
Slavery still a' gwarn yeah (mmmmmm)
Slavery still a' gwarn yeah (Still a' gwarn)
If you don't believe, hear the words to this song

[Bridge]
Nuff tings weh grew a' yard ship out a' wharf
Whole shipment reach foreign an' it sell off
Now di bigger boss dem sit back an' a laugh
And di worker dem suffer back a' yard

[Chorus]
Where di yute dem share
Di one weh till di soil?
Where di yute dem share
Di one weh load di stockpile?
Where di yute dem share?
What they spend in a day can feed their workers' family for a year
Where di yute dem share
Weh tek di fall fi di raid?
Where di yute dem share
Weh dere a' prison wid no bail?
Where di yute dem share?
Dats how we come to say, slavery still a' gwarn 'round here, eh

[Verse 1]
Open your eyes my friend
What we're saying is no secret my friend
All the money they make is for political gain
You can see it all so clear, eh
It's total injustice my friend
Oppression at it's highest my friend
So what will it take for someone with power to hear the cry out there?

[Chorus]
So where di yute dem share
Di one weh till di soil?
Where di yute dem share
Di one weh load di stockpile?
Where di yute dem share?
What they spend in a day can feed their workers' family for a year
Where di yute dem share
Weh tek di fall fi di raid?
Where di yute dem share
Weh dere a' prison wid no bail?
Where di yute dem share?
Dats how we've come to say, slavery still a' gwarn 'round 'ere

[Verse 2]
Look inna Africa, same ting a' gwarn eh (a' gwarn)
Look inna Africa (Africa), same ting a' gwarn eh, eh (mmmmm)
Blood diamonds and gold leave the African shores
Whole shipment reach England safe and secure (secure)
Now the aristocrat's a' champagne dem a' pour
While di Africans blood still a' pour, eh
How many times you see di poor man skull a' bore?
Blood a' run like water like when Moses strike di rock for sure
Like when him strike di rock for sure, eyyyyy

[Chorus]
Where di yute dem share
Di one weh till di mines?
Where di yute dem share
Di one weh lose dem lives?
Where di yute dem share?
What they spend in a day can feed their workers' family for a year
Where di yute dem share
Weh tek di fall fi di raid?
Where di yute dem share
Weh dere a' prison wid no bail?
Where di yute dem share?
Thats how we've come to say, slavery still a' gwarn 'round here, eh

[Bridge]
Thousand pound a ganja lef' out a' wharf
Di whole shipment reach foreign an' it sell off
Now di bigger boss inna new car him pass
And di worker dem a' bawl an' still nah talk

[Chorus]
So where di yute dem share
Di one weh till di soil?
Where di yute dem share
Di one weh load the stockpile?
Where di yute dem share?
What they spend in a day can feed their workers' family for a year
Where di yute dem share
Weh tek di fall fi di raid?
Where di yute dem share
Weh dere a' prison wid no bail?
Where di yute dem share?
Dats how we come to say, slavery still a' gwarn 'round here
Where di yute dem share? Yeah, yeah
